We are proud to announce our next great and big update for FDT 5. Right now it’s a beta version but the final release is planned very soon. It will be a free update for all FDT 5 customers. We added some great new features to this “major minor release” and we’re sure you’ll like them. The main feature we integrated is the new community feature “SWF Bridge”. It allows you to write your own FDT Plug-Ins in ActionScript. Nearly everything is possible, so check out Alan’s blogpost and get started with your first official FDT Plug-In. But there is a lot more in it:

We also added a complete new license management to support a highly requested new licensing model: subscriptions. With the new license management FDT will verify the key with a license server on our side. A blogpost with detailed information will be released a few days before the final release.

If you find any bugs or other issues during the beta test please let us know in the Jira.

We wish you a lot of fun testing the new version and are excited to hear your feedback.

I see in JIRA that there were bug fixes in 5.1, however, I haven’t gotten any updates since I installed FDT more than 6-8 months ago (my version says 5.0.1412, and I just downloaded FDT and it says 5.0.1460). Am I missing somewhere I can update?

It’s not a bug. ANEs have been integrated into FDT just like SWCs. There are a few small differences, but from a workflow POV, it’s 99% the same.

The Native Extension settings has been dissappered from FDT AIR Properties/iOS. Is it a bug?
